Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 6.30 or SAME Antares II 130?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Agrotron 6.30 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Antares II 130 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 6.30 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 44% (25.3 L/min / 6.7 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 49% (3,040 kg / 6,702 lb) more three-point lift.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “the same stated configuration”. Measured figures are compared only with measured, claimed only with claimed, at the same test condition; differences within each figure’s tolerance are not called.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 6.30 has 44% more hydraulic flow (25.3 L/min / 6.7 gpm) than the SAME Antares II 130 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 6.30 has 49% more lift (3,040 kg / 6,702 lb) than the SAME Antares II 130 (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 6.30 is 11% heavier (510 kg / 1,124 lb) than the SAME Antares II 130 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Same era: production began within 5 years of each other. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the Agrotron 6.30 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Antares II 130 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, maximum permissible mass and a creeper range.
